Return to US means end to local politics


A DECISION to live in Washington DC means that Whalley councillor Margaret Kelly will not.


be standing as a Liberal Democrat candidate at May’s council elections. Coun. Kelly will be quitting the world of


politics — at least for the time being. Four years ago, Coun.


Kelly successfully won a seat on Ribble Valley Bor­ ough Council, defeating the former council leader, the Conservative candi­ date, Coun. Sheila Maw.


Since then, representing


the village, Coun. Kelly has been a member of many borough council com mittee s including housing, finance, policy and resources,services, environmental and social, purposes and personnel.

A R I B C H E S T E R man’ s signwr i t ing company scooped a £100 prize in a pres­ tigious East Lanca- s h i r e b u s i n e s s competition.


Mr Andrew Talbot (22), who runs the Riverside


Studio, came fourth in the existing business category of the Livewire competi­ tion final.


Mr Talbot’s business specialises in artwork, pic­


ture framing and signwrit­ ing service to a mixture of private and commercial cli­ ents. He also o f fe r s workshops.


Former Bowland High


School pupil Miss Rebecca Lancaster (23) received a


highly commended and £50 for her Horton-in-Craven


ergonomics business. Organised by the Con­

She said: ”1 have greatly


enjoyed the past four years, during which I have had my first experience in politics and I shall be sad to go especially now that things look very interest­ ing, since it looks as though the Liberal Demo­ crats have a good chance


of taking over from the Conservatives as the rul­


ing party on the borough council.”


Coun. Kelly will be join­ ing her husband, who is


now president of Delta Defense Incorporated. Her two sons — Chris­ topher (23), who last year graduated in English at Hull U n iv e r s i ty and Matthew (20), who is stu­ dying for a degree in eco­ nomics at the London School o f Economics — will remain in England.

S E V E N students from Clitheroe Royal Grammar School have used their initiative to produce their own


flexible friend. Although not nationally


recognised, their variety of the student card will allow them and their fel­ low students at school to claim discounts while shopping at certain parti- c ip a t in g o u t le t s in


Clitheroe. The prudent young stu­


dents, all girls, realised that, although they are still at school, they are committed to self-imposed destitution for at least two years in order to give themselves a chance in the


future. Why then, should they not receive some benefit for their frugal


existence? They decided to write to


all the shops in Clitheroe and ask to be given dis­ count when shopping at them. In return they would produce their very own student card, which would also act as an iden­


tity card. Obtaining their teach­


ers’ agreement, letters were sent out to all the Clitheroe shops during half term in February. P o s it iv e replies were received by more than 60 shops and the first cards


were produced at the begining of March. A t present, 110 stu-


dents in the lower-sixth ment, which is certainly to Rose Dugdale, Sally Gil- form have their little piece their credit. of plastic When these stu-
